Targeted grant writing services for mission-driven organisations

I collaborate with not-for-profits to win grants and scale their impact. Together we unlock vital funds to bring community projects to life. Through our partnership, organisations gain access to a senior grants strategist, without the added costs of recruiting a full-time grant writer, freeing up your team to focus on delivering better outcomes for your communities.

I draw on my extensive experience across the not-for-profit sector to provide a streamlined service from grant identification and strategic assessments to submission. My specialty areas include sourcing grants for remote Aboriginal Corporations and winning major tenders in the child and family welfare sector.

Whether you're in the early stages of project development or have your sights set on an upcoming funding round, I'd love to discuss how I can help to bring your projects to life.

Services & pricing

I offer monthly, quarterly and annual subscription services depending on your needs. All subscribers have unlimited access to grant scoping, assessment and writing requests and regularly receive updates on the latest funding opportunities.

Testimonials

“Alyssa has been instrumental in assisting us to grow in the direction our members have set for us. The funding she has helped us secure, across multiple sources, has meant we can properly resource our small organisation to achieve significant outcomes to strengthen governance, land and heritage management, language and economic development. She is such a pleasure to work with because she understands the environment we operate in so well due to her extensive experience and skills, she can develop funding applications that set us above the rest and she has a gentle yet fixed approach to ensuring timeframes and approvals are met whilst working within our limited capacity and availability. I highly recommend you sign up to Alyssa’s services before she gets completely booked out.”
